5x5 Program HELP

[curls4girls]

I am planning on starting a 5x5 (Bill Star) program. I have been researching the topic, but I keep finding different variations of it.

What is the best 5x5 program for overall strength/size?

And please include the secondary lifts...

hey curls4girls, Check out my thread on this site.

Start on page 2 because, like you, I was confused by all the dif variations. I'm in week 9 and am loving it, free standing squats for the first time due to ankle problems (hitting 275 on Fiday), DL's, the works. Take a look and then get ready! I'll be glad to work with you on your 12 week plan.

I would suggest Stronglifts 5x5.
Very simple and very effective, but you have to EAT to support the program.
Just google it.

[curls4girls]

Well I believe I have decided to do the push/pull/legs instead
